But is the doctor legally liable or does the coach just take the doctor's advice and makes his own decisions?
From what I'm hearing, if the doctor does not clear him but the coach wants to put him in, then he can. So if the doctor does clear him and he plays, is the doctor legally liable in that case or is the coach liable in both cases?
I googled for Reggie Lewis' case, and all I found was that the doctor was cleared but they were going to appeal the case.
